<p>Hi all,<br> I recently purchased a Nikon F4 & have been shooting with 2 manual focus lenses: 28mm f2.8 & 85mm 2.0. I want to buy an AF lens, as I tend to shoot a lot of movement, and as you can imagine, I miss a lot of shots using MF. I've been scarred from my experience using the Contax G2 for a test shoot & the AF was useless. Not one photo was in focus. Although, I understand the G2 takes a little practise to get used to. So you see why I'm hesitant to make the switch to AF & let go of a little control.<br> After doing some research online, it looks like the best all-rounder/sharp lens for portraiture is the Nikkor 24-120mm f4 (open to other suggestions). However, the 90% compatibility with the Nikon F4 means that I could only shoot in shutter priority, as there's no way to set the aperture on the lens. My question to you is, do you think it's worth sacrificing manual mode for this lens? And is this lens THAT much sharper than the 85mm?</p> <p>Thanks in advance,<br> Brydie<br> brydiemack.com </p>
